Youth Sailing Camp

Services Provided

We teach children ages 8 to 16 basic, intermediate and advanced sailing skills. All classes are held at our facility at the Baltimore Museum of Industry. Each day is divided between land-based and on-water instruction, with the emphasis being on the water. Children are grouped according to age and ability. Students participate in navigational scavenger hunts, round robin racing and land-based activities to enhance their sailing ability. Safety is taught at every level - all participants (and instructors) are required to wear a personal flotation device (PFD).

Costs

The cost for each five-day keelboat session is $299.00. (Session 5 will cost $239.00 since it is a four-day session.)

Hours

9:00am-4:00pm
